YAY!! So glad you liked Rich!!!! We booked him on the spot. My SIL and brother used Verbena for there wedding before she was really big like she is now and loved her! She is actually one of their clients now because they stayed friendly with her.

I have a feeling this is gonna be a hard decision. I asked Rich about seeing a sample and he said they do them 3 months before the wedding date. Should I ask him to put a little something together for me? I feel like he knows exactly what I want though.

Just had to say I went to all three of your listed florists as well. All of them were great, but in the end we decided to go with Verbena. She was so great to work with and stayed within our budget. If that wasn't enough, she handled herself beautifully when we had to change the date of our wedding. A++++

Her sample CP is in my album....It was exactly what we envisioned.

yeah that is weird...booking something w/o really knowing what ur getting...but they come so highly recommended that i dont think you have anything to worry about

hi....so happy you may go with Jenn. She is one of my favorite vendors. Check my pics. I have a sample of one of the centerpieces she made us...on a budget. I rented the candalabras from my venue and she did the rest.
